Bimetal Operating Principle: Bi-Metal Thermometers
Bimetal Operating Principle: Bi-Metal Thermometers
BI-METAL THERMOMETERS
The temperature is measured with a bimetal system inside the thermometer stem. The bimetal system consists
of two metal strips bonded together that have different expansion coefficients. Therefore, one strip will expand
MECHANICAL TEMPERATURE
faster than the other causing the bimetal strip to curl in proportion to its temperature. The bimetal system is heli-
cally wound and heat treated for long term stability. Temperature variations cause the bimetal strip to unwind or
wind tighter, which in turn rotates the pointer.

Mechanical Temperature > Bimetal Thermometers > Bimetal Thermometers General Specifications
Case: Sturdy, corrosion resistant series 304 stainless steel case and bezel.
Designed and constructed to provide a hermetic seal (IP65, NEMA 4X) which prevents
crystal fogging and damage caused by moisture to the working components. Install
thermometer so the maximum temperature case is kept below 200°F at all times.
Dial: Anti-parallax heavy gauge aluminum with white matte finish to reduce glare.
Dished form with Celsius on lower inner plane and Fahrenheit on raised outer plane
offers accurate indication of both scales (if equipped with dual scales).
Stem: 304 SS welded at tip and case connector to prevent leakage. ¼" diameter is standard, 3/8" is available. Stem lengths to
MECHANICAL TEMPERATURE
72" are available as well as 316 SS stem and connector assemblies.
Immersion: For accurate temperature readings, immerse the stem a minimum of 2" in agitated liquid or 4" in moving air or gas.
Over Range: Temporary over or under range of 50% of scale up to 500°F or 260°C will not affect the instrument's accuracy.
Bimetal Element: An extremely responsive temperature sensing helix which has been carefully sized and tested, heat treated
and aged to relieve inherent stresses and ensure continued accuracy.
Accuracy: Guaranteed to be accurate to within 1% of full scale (Grade A per ASME B40.3). Calibration is to standards
traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
Hermetic Seal: Hermetically sealed per ASME B40.3. Guaranteed not to fog up. (IP65, NEMA 4X)
7-Year Warranty: WIKA extends a 7-YEAR WARRANTY on standard types 30, 31, 50, 51, 32, & 52. Such units are guaran-
teed to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. For all other models, WIKA extends a
1-year warranty. Complete details available upon request.
Filled Thermometer Policy: Silicone filling is available on selected types for ranges between -40°F and 500°F. WIKA does
not recommend use of filled instruments for continual use at operating temperatures above of 400°F (204°C) or below -100°
F(-70° C). Under no circumstances will an instrument warranty apply or will WIKA assume any liability for use above these
temperatures. Per ASME B40.3, plain glass windows must not be used on filled thermometers due to expansion of fill fluid and
potential lens breakage. Note: for stem lengths over 24"- consult factory.
Thermowells are recommended for pressure, corrosive, fluid or high velocity applications.

WIKA gas actuated dial thermometers are available as direct reading or remote
reading with stainless steel bulbs and armored capillary. WIKA extends a one-year
warranty against defects in material and workmanship on standard gas actuated dial
thermometers.
Installation Guidelines: While WIKA gas actuated dial thermometers are highly accurate and rugged instruments, there are
some guidelines that should be followed in their application and installation. Consideration must be given to the measured
medium. Is it corrosive, abrasive, turbulent, or under pressure? Can the sensing bulb be placed to give an accurate indication
of the temperature?
The sensing bulb should be placed in a non-turbulent area of piping or ducting and as close the center of the flow as possible.
MECHANICAL TEMPERATURE
In tanks, it should be placed in an area of the tank that will provide a good average of the temperature of the fluid contained.
The bulb should be protected from corrosive or abrasive media and excessively high pressures. The usual method of protec-
tion is the use of a thermowell.
When a remote reading thermometer is installed, consideration must be given to the location of the bulb, the dial indicator, and
the routing of the capillary. The capillary must be located where it will not be damaged by workers or equipment used in future
maintenance. Remember that the capillary CANNOT be cut to facilitate installation or relocation.
Installation Procedure: The bulb should be located in the process at the point that will provide the temperature indication
that is most representative of the process temperature. Circulation of the medium around the bulb is necessary for optimum
response time and accuracy. For Direct Reading thermometers, use wrench flats when provided to install the thermometer. For
Remote Reading thermometers – do not twist, kink, strain or cut the connecting tube. After the case has been mounted, uncoil
and stretch out the connecting tubing, placing the bulb at its intended location. After installing the bulb, fasten the connecting
tubing to a wall or other support to prevent damage. Position the connecting tubing to avoid extreme temperature. Since the
connecting tubing length cannot be altered, any excess should be coiled on a 3" minimum radius and supported near the case.
Mechanical Temperature > Gas Actuated Thermometers > Gas Actuated Thermometers Operating and Installation
For installations requiring a pressure seal between the process and the atmosphere, a thermowell should be used. The bend-
able extension with a sliding union allows for variable insertion depths to place properly the active portion of the sensing bulb
in the process for maximum accuracy. Aluminum duct flanges are available for threading union fitted bulbs into duct work to
provide temperature indication of ducted air or gases.

Plain Bulb w/ Rigid Extension
Bulbs available on WIKA gas actuated dial thermometers have 3/8" diameters to allow for installation in most existing piping and
tanks. As the bulb is the temperature sensing element of the system, it must be placed where the most accurate temperature
reading can be obtained. In piping, this is usually the center of the flow in an area of least turbulence. In tanks, this is an area
that will represent a good average of the fluid temperature - usually close to the center of the tank. Available materials, lengths,
and insertion depths for standard bulbs are listed in the accompanying chart.

THERMOWELLS
Thermowell Terminology
Process Connection: External means to connect thermowell to process piping system. Wells can be threaded, bolted
(to matching flange), clamped or welded in place.
"U" Dimension: Length of well inserted into the piping system. Measured from the base of the process connection to the
end tip of well.
"T" Dimension: Also called lagging extension. Extends length between the instrument and process connections to accommo-
date vessel or piping insulation. Standard length is 3" (2" for a well with a 2½" "U" dimension).
Bore Diameter: Dimension of internal bore to match the diameter of the instrument stem/bulb inserted into the well. The
.260" and .385" bore sizes fit instrument stem/bulb diameters of ¼" and 3/8" respectively. Bore length equals "S" dimension.
Root Diameter: Diameter of well shank below process connection. This dimension varies with process connection and/or
shank design.
Tip Diameter: Diameter of well shank at the end tip of well. This dimension may vary with process connection and/or shank
design.
Reduced Shank: Also called reduced tip. The shank O.D. is reduced over the last 2½" of the "U" dimension from the
standard root diameter to a ½" O.D. The stepped shank is available with a .260" bore size only.
Straight Shank: Shank O.D. is the same from the root diameter to the tip diameter. The straight shank is generally used with
a .385" bore size but a .260" bore size is available.
MECHANICAL TEMPERATURE
Tapered Shank: Shank O.D. is gradually reduced from the root diameter to the tip diameter. Available with a .260" or
.385" bore size. The tapered shank is recommended for heavy duty applications characterized by high vibration, pressure,
temperature and/or velocity.
